Co-Curricular Participation Information

Students involved in athletic programs are visible representatives of Oak Park and River Forest High. It is crucial that a strong link between good citizenship and opportunities for participation be maintained.

Prospective athletic participants should refer to the Athletic Handbook to become familiar with the terms and conditions that are applicable throughout the school year whether or not the student is in season.

How to Register for Sports at OPRF

Get your ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAM. The best date for a physical exam is after May 1st so it will not expire during the school year (the physical exam is current for 395 days). All Returning Athletes will need to submit the IHSA Physical Exam or have a physical on file that covers them through the entire season of competition. All Freshman athletes can use their school entry physical to serve as the athletic physical if it is dated after May 1, 2018.

Students or parents must always HAND DELIVER the PARTICIPATION FORM and ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAM to the Athletic Office during the appropriate Registration Dates (see below). Do not mail forms in, or leave at the Welcome Center.
